^ Dude i love your Jeep
No worries, I know how you feel. Had a line on a piano. Messaged the guy about 5 minutes after posted online. I email back and forth the earliest time to see it. His last email said his afternoon opened up and I could go see it. I called within a minute or two of getting that email, and he tells me he sold it... Not sure his intentions, but there physically wasn't enough time to actually sell it, between the email and my call.
I paid $200 cash for this beast here. Nissan s12 (200sx). 2.0l 4 cyl, 2 plugs per cylinder (race ready )
No stereo, windows sucked and it smelled like ****. IRS rear was not good for the burnouts But it got me to work for a few weeks on like 3 gallons of gas. Got rid of it when some ricer offered me $500 for it.
It ran a 19 sec Quarter FROM a 20 ROLL out on a country road.
Easily the slowest POS ive ever owned or driven. But it was great to have something to just rip the piss out of. 8k clutch dump and shifting past red line (wherever that was). Ill never knock someone for having a beater, although yours looks much nicer than mine was.
Holy crap! That was my first car when I was 16! Except mine was a red notch. I remember burning up the clutch while ripping donuts on the football field, and barely limping it home (dont ask). You are absolutely right what a POS they were. Once they were about 5-6 years old they were notorious for the drivers door hinge failing out of alignment and the fender and door would get a bashed together. Mine was no different. And YES they were slow as balls. I had to drive that thing all the way thru HS until the summer after graduation, which sucked, but that pile frequently would be filled with 7 other kids besides me (dont ask again, lol) and the engine never quit. Never seen anyone drive the same POS as I did until now.
